Carcharodons: The Silent Hunters | Warhammer 40k Lore

https://www.patreon.com/AdeptusRidiculous https://www.adeptusridiculous.com/ https://twitter.com/AdRidiculous https://shop.orchideight.com/collections/adeptus-ridiculous This week, Bricky, DK, and Kirioth dive deep into the bloody, silent, and downright terrifying lore of the Carcharodon Astra—better known as the Space Sharks. Operating beyond the Imperium's borders as a nomadic predation fleet, these pale, black-eyed killers are driven by a brutal necessity to harvest their own supplies and recruits through the infamous Red and Grey Tithes. From their mysterious origins and suspected Raven Guard lineage to the impossibly fast, terminator-clad Chapter Master Tyberos the Red Wake, we're covering exactly why you never want to see these guys show up to "rescue" your planet.

You Have Been Lied To About 40k Orks | Warhammer 40k Lore

https://www.patreon.com/AdeptusRidiculous https://www.adeptusridiculous.com/ https://twitter.com/AdRidiculous https://shop.orchideight.com/collections/adeptus-ridiculous 0:00 Intro 14:00 Episode Think you know everything about the greenest, meanest, and most meme’d-about faction in Warhammer 40k? Think again. In this episode of Adeptus Ridiculous, Bricky, DK, and Kirioth team up to revisit the "You've Been Lied To" series, tackling the chaotic, retcon-heavy history of the Orks. From their earliest space-faring days in Rogue Trader to the modern setting, Games Workshop has fundamentally shifted how these green monsters function—meaning there’s a very good chance you’ve been fed some serious misinformation. We’re splitting this episode wide open to compare the hilarious old-school lore with the contemporary reality. Does painting a trukk red actually make it faster? And why—no matter what the internet tells you—an Ork cannot just pick up a stick, say "bang," and use it as a gun. Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/AdeptusRidiculous]

URIEL VENTRIS: Least Depressed Named Ultramarine | Warhammer 40k Lore

https://www.patreon.com/AdeptusRidiculous https://www.adeptusridiculous.com/ https://twitter.com/AdRidiculous https://shop.orchideight.com/collections/adeptus-ridiculous Uriel Ventris is the young captain of the 4th Company of the Ultramarines Chapter of Space Marines. Captain Uriel Ventris was born in the subterranean cities of the Imperial Civilised World of Calth in the Realm of Ultramar and chose to become an Ultramarines aspirant when he came of age to participate in the Chapter's trials. He succeeded in his quest and became an Ultramarines neophyte and then earned his way into the ranks of the Ultramarines' officer corps through his bravery and devotion to the ideals of the Ultramarines primarch, Roboute Guilliman. However, some of his battle-brothers, like Sergeant Learchus, questioned Uriel's commitment to the Codex Astartes because his friend, mentor, and predecessor Captain Idaeus, though a hero of the Chapter, was known to break the Codex 's teachings regularly. 00:00 Lengthy Intro, Book club, Merch 11:00 URIEL VENTRIS Lore Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/AdeptusRidiculous]

CIAPHAS CAIN - HERO OF THE IMPERIUM | Warhammer 40k Lore

https://www.patreon.com/AdeptusRidiculous https://www.adeptusridiculous.com/ https://twitter.com/AdRidiculous https://shop.orchideight.com/collections/adeptus-ridiculous Ciaphas Cain was an Imperial Commissar. He was in active service in the last century of M41, and was over 200 years old when he was recalled into service during the 13th Black Crusade of Abaddon the Despoiler, and it is certain that he survived more than a quarter of a century into M42. Propaganda made him out to be the hero of the Imperium circa late M41 although in truth he was mainly focused on surviving. (However, he differed from many other Imperial commissars in that he would not readily sacrifice soldiers unless it ensured his own survival.) Cain tried his utmost to avoid engaging in actual combat, but had to anyway to maintain his status as a Hero of the Imperium, which ironically involved him in more dangerous situations than any he would usually see as a commissar. He was responsible for many successful campaigns throughout his career and retired to become a professor at a Schola Progenium. In M42 the Cain Archive was published among the ranks of the Inquisition. They are sequestered by order of the Holy Ordos, and are kept and organised as the Cain Archive by Ordo Xenos Inquisitor Amberley Vail with whom Cain had many encounters over his career, and shared a close working and personal relationship. It is worth noting, as Inquisitor Vail does in footnotes throughout his memoirs, that Cain was a skilled liar and dissembler, and therefore anything to which he refers that is not independently documented could well be a fabrication to maintain his reputation.

Skitarii: Mars' Immortal Cyborg Legions | Warhammer 40k Lore

https://www.patreon.com/AdeptusRidiculous https://www.adeptusridiculous.com/ https://twitter.com/AdRidiculous https://shop.orchideight.com/collections/adeptus-ridiculous In this episode, Bricky and DK dive into the irradiated, heavily augmented world of the Adeptus Mechanicus Skitarii. From their origins as nomadic scavengers on the toxic dunes of Mars during the Age of Strife to becoming the unquestioning, cyborg foot soldiers of the Machine God, we cover exactly what goes into the Mechanicum's relentless forces.  Discover the brutal process of the Corpus Skitarii, including the mandatory removal of eyelids & legs, and explore the massive variety of troops deployed by the Forge Worlds. We discuss Vanguard Rad-Troopers who dissolve their own armor with radiation, Sicarian Ruststalkers moving at blinding speeds as commandos, Pteraxii taking to the skies, and the Serberys Corps riding mechanical dogs into battle. Plus, a look at the highly questionable "Project Kataphron" and what standard Imperial Guardsmen actually think of their AdMech counterparts.
